Gosh, it's all a bit much for the Aussies to take in.

He also died doing what he loved. Racing cars.

(CNN) -- The leader of al Qaeda in Iraq urged his followers to kill at least one American in the next two weeks using a sniper rifle, explosive or "whatever the battle may require," according to an audiotape that aired Thursday on Al-Jazeera.

I read this on CNN today. I am trying really hard to not judge a group by the actions of a few. I have read books on Islam, trying to understand it, but I keep seeing stuff like this.

The Americans aren't doing a very good job over there in Iraq. There are a lot of good things happening over there that the news does not show too.

If they do not want us there, then they need to stop blowing up and executing thier own people, and stop blowing us up. Simple, stop the violence, and the US will go home.

I find what ever site I go to there seems to people making jokes and talking ill of Steve. This is someone Husband and someone Father. I makes me angry. Yes I know everyone entitled to their freedom of speech, but this man was out there to teach us about the animals that need us to save there planet. Respect is what we should be showing his family. In times like this people need to follow the one golden rule in life: If you can say anything nice, then dont say anything at all.

Prime just ran an ad confirming he died in a car accident. They showed a picture of a car front on in the tree. (I'm assuming it hit) but the ad was cut short.

Can anybody provide more information or a response?

How come nobody cries about that? Oh, you say we aren't losing men there??? WELL if we had completely creamed them like we did the Germans and the Japanese we wouldn't have these problems there either, but we had to listen to your moaning about hurting poor enemies.

I posted the following comment on a MySpace bulletin about Steve Irwin, and my boyfriend got really mad:

"If I were a crocodile, I'd be happy for our hero who defeated our number one enemy, THE INFAMOUS CROCODILE HUNTER. I'd probably go to the local lake to get drunk on seaweed with my crocks to celebrate. BUT! I am a human being, so I must stay faithful to my peeps and jump on the bandwagon by saying how sad this hunter guy's death is. (And it is. Now, if I were his wife or any of his children, I'd be devastated. AH. The beauty of subjectivism)."

He said that I had no idea who he was, that he did a lot of research, and blah blah. He has a point. I was trying to be satirical by saying that if we don't like to be studied like lab rats, crocodiles probably don't like to either. Now, I don't know if he ever killed a crocodile "in defense..." Does anyone know if he did? If he did, he was wrong, because he was in THEIR habitat. But anyway. What do you guys think or a little sarcasm?

I want to hear from both sides,
Majority ( including myself) doesn't believe that anyone has the right to see Steve Irwins last moments... Apart from common sense what brings you to this conclusion?

To the opposition, What makes you believe you have the right to see it? Is it a sick fascination? Or are you heartles?

Why hasn't the Federal Government declared that date a national holiday? We observe it with a few moments of silence, but then what? We should honor ALL who died in the attacks, except for those sand rats! We honor a black man for bringing equality to the black race, we honor dead presidents, we honor the birth of our nation, we honor the birth and death of our Savior. But what about all those who died in the attacks? I'm not looking for another paid day off, but having a National Holiday is the only way to properly honor all those who suffered this great tragedy. We miss you all!
